With federal workplace policy restricting telework even as an accommodation, federal practitioners must find effective accommodations for employees with disabilities — without relying on remote work as the default solution.
In this on-demand webinar, disability law expert Deryn Sumner breaks down the higher-level accommodation issues practitioners struggle with most — including a deep dive into OPM/EEOC guidance on telework as an accommodation, how to identify effective alternatives, and when telework or leave might be the only accommodation that makes sense.
Plus, you learn best practices to:
- Assess whether an offered accommodation is truly effective
- Respond if an employee refuses to engage in the interactive process
- Deal with competing medical information from the employee's and the agency’s physicians
- Document accommodation efforts to defend against claims of delay or denial
- Establish undue hardship
- And more
